5 Connotation vs. Denotation Denotation The dictionary definition of a word. Denotations do not shift over time or space as connotations often do. Connotation A meaning, association, or emotion suggested by a word, aside from its dictionary definition. Connotations can be positive, neutral, or negative. They can shift with current attitudes in society or pop culture.
6 Connotation vs. Denotation Denotation Connotation
7 Connotation vs. Denotation Based on the context in which it is used, a word can have a positive or negative connotation. Some examples: Word Positive Connotation Negative Connotation Unusual Extraordinary Bizarre Firm Determined Stubborn Eager Enthusiastic Impatient
8 Tone Brainstorm: What elements of language contribute to tone? Think about the article and the video and consider how the authors and speakers create/describe tone. Think of: DIDLS
9 Tone Element Diction Images Details Language Sentence Structure Definition The important and individual words the author chooses to use The word pictures created by groups of words. These images appeal to the senses. Often confused with images, these are more precisely facts and are notable not only for what is included, but also for what is purposely omitted.

10 Hairs by Sandra Cisneros From The House on Mango Street Everybody in our family has different hair. My papa s hair is like a broom, all up in the air. And me, my hair is lazy. It never obeys barrettes or bands. Carolos s hair is thick and straight. He doesn t need to comb it. Nenny s hair is slippery slides out of your hand. And Kiki, who is youngest, has hair like fir. But my mother s hair, like little rosettes, like little candy circles, all curly because she pinned it in curls all day, sweet to put your nose into when she is holding you, holding you and you feel safe, is the warm smell of bread before you bake it, is the smell when she makes room for you on her side of the bed still warm with her skin, and you sleep near her, the rain outside falling and Papa snoring. The snoring, the rain, and Mama s hair that smells like bread.

They can overlap, but are ultimately different from images in that they don't have a strong sensory appeal.
